Game of Thrones — King’s Landing | BestForTravel

Welcome to the real-world King’s Landing. Dubrovnik’s medieval walls, terracotta rooftops, and dramatic Adriatic coastline became the primary filming backdrop for the capital of the Seven Kingdoms. The Old Town appears throughout the series, while nearby locations such as Fort Lovrijenac were used for scenes around the Red Keep and Blackwater Bay. Walking through Dubrovnik feels like stepping directly into Westeros—only without the dragons. Travel tips Start near Pile Gate, walk the complete city-wall route, and continue to Fort Lovrijenac for one of the most recognizable King’s Landing perspectives. Bring comfortable shoes—the historic centre includes steep stairways and polished stone streets. Location note The coordinates mark central Dubrovnik Old Town; King’s Landing scenes were filmed across several nearby sites rather than at one single point. Quick tips: Best time: shortly after sunrise · Best season: April–May or September–October
